About

A Journey Into Film was founded by a college graduate who found it more interesting to study and discuss films with his roommate than study for his classes.

A Journey Into Film follows the idea that life is a journey, not a destination. Film education and film appreciation are the same. Everything we write is meant to inspire thinking about why we like certain movies and what it is we like about them. We should never settle on a selection of favorites and never reach out to discover more. Our hope is that each post not only stretches our thinking and understanding of film, but yours as well.

Who are we?

Nigel Doerfler –Founder/Writer

My idea for A Journey into Film was born mostly out of my love, no, obsession, with film. Overtime that obsession has helped shape my understanding of what makes a film good or bad. I currently hold a bachelors degree in Theology & Apologetics with a minor in Old Testament Studies. I am married to a beautiful woman and together we raise two fur babies Rocket and Quincy. Outside of my love of film, I also enjoy philosophy, comic books, and a black cup of home roasted coffee.

Joel is a simple man. He loves film, especially the Coen Brothers, and wants his information off of the internet. He brings an appreciation for classic cinema to the site. He also has a bachelors in history, which is useless for this site for anything.
